THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS 15 Irlfy Fills FULL EW YORK July 31.—College football this fall will conform 'a oractically every respect to tile code of rules which gov- ed the sport last year. What few pr&tions the football rules com- ittee made were of technical nature for the most part served only to the wording of ambiguity. [One somewhat important change, wever, will permit the kicker to *ici at any distance from the line of Ifnmage when booting the ball in- d of at least 5 yards back as tofore. It is expected that this put a premium on quick kicking i directly behind the forwards and a new feature of always welcome irtainty.

The 1 relating to substitution was »ged to read: Players may be returned once at beginning of any period or at any j> during the fourth or last period.” |specific penalty has been placed advancing beyond the lines in of a punt out. In this case th€ |ers’ angle wlil be moved 5 yards ftr from the nearest goal post along goal line. If the punter out makes ^liberate attempt by a feint to If the opponents offside the ref- U must not permit him to kick the 11 until the opponents have had time return behind their restraining line. [ Concerning Forward Pass. In the rules regarding the conduct players after a forward pass or r a -kick insertion of the words IT the pass has been made” now jes it clear that players may in- fa*e with one another until the pass actually made. ^ relic of the time when the ball K not always snapped back with hands has been eliminated. The 4 which read, “by one continuous tion of the hands or of the foot,” 8 been shortened by cutting out the brds “of the foot.” rule relating to a forward pass i kick made from behind the goal f together with the rule relating to pping back linemen, has also been dered clearer by changes in the ding lie.

Schwartz-Lockner Disqualified I T Is certainly tough luck for a plucky pair of motorcycle racers to be disqualified for a technical breach of the rules, after finishing first in a terrific half-hour grind. But if Schwartz and Liockner suffered that penalty, they at least earned the praise of a big crowd at the Drome last night, and they set a fearful clip for the long race. The reason for disqualification was that both partners were on the track at the same time to an extent that was barred by the rules. The finish was listed in this or- iei: Richards and Shields, first: Luther and Lewis, second; Graves and Mc- Niel, third; and Glenn and Renel, fourth. Lewis rode one of the best race© of his career, and his thirteen min utes o'n the tracK practically settled lus combination in a liign place at the finish. The next meet is scheduled for Friday night, and the card is under preparation today, to be announced later. Harry GLnn, the Atlantic rider, showed class last night ;ti winning a two-mile match race from Luther In 1:28 2-5, and later, riding Graves’ Excelsior, tried for the track record of :38 4-5. He missed it by three sec onds, but gave a fine exhibition of riding. Graves won his heat and the final in the Motordrome sweepstakes in a furious drive. The time was 1:22. Wolgast Says Ritchie Is Dodging Match LOS ANGELES, July 31.—The next skirmish between the rivals, Ad Wol gast and Willie Ritchie, will occur in San Francisco. Ritchie left for the northern city in his automobile yesterday morning. Wolgast and Manager Tom Jones will take the Lark train to-night for San Fran cisco, figuring to beat the champion into the city and be in waiting for him when Ritchie arrives home. Wolgast does not mince his words In charging that the champion ran out on him. “We were around town from 9 in the morning until midnight on Tues day, but could not coax Ritchie into a meeting,” said Ad to-day. “The fact that he got out of town at day light shows how he feels about tak ing another chance against mp. “He can’t get away, though. Jpnes and I will go north to-night and grab Ritchie when he arrives in San Fran cisco.” J. Johnson a Fairy-Tale Hero SOUTHERN LEAGUE. Games Thursday. Nashville at Atlanta. Ponce DeLeon.

According to Cobb, the spectator ad dressed objectionable language to him. Mindful of the trouble he caused in this city a year ago when he attempted to rebuke physically a like offender. Cobb called upon the umpire to eject the ob jectionable person. FiAts to-day said: "According to reports from Philadel phia, Cobb, attempting to follow out the plan laid down by the National Com mission, appealed to the umpire to eject a spectator who had insulted him, and was Jeered out of the game by the crowd. “The fact that the spectator was al lowed to remain in the stand proves that the method adopted by organized ball for handling this evil is grossly inade quate. "A player should not be made to stul tify himself in this maner. The mag nates should make a sincere effort to put an end to this long standing evil. "The Players’ Fraternity has repeat edly made suggestions which, if adopted, would prove of much benefit, but the National Commission has so far disre garded them.” v»+ From Waterloo to Grand Opera By W. W. Naughton. I T can hardly be that all the st&j;ies which float across the Atlantic concerning Jack Johnson are true, To begin with, one alleged interview with the big negro has him saying that he will surely return to the United States in September to fight his conviction on the white slavery charge, while another tells that John son has decided to build a small villa in the suburbs of Paris and that he has become morose over his self-im posed banishment from the United States. This later interview has Johnson saying: “My ambition has always been to live in France, but I am very melancholy because I shall never see the land of my birth.” The reports of Johnson's pugilistic intentions are also confused. One has it that he is looking forward to a world’s championship match with A1 Palzer in Paris in September, and another says th&t he has accepted five thousand dollars advance n oney from a Russian promoter who plans to han dle a Johnson-Langford match in Moscow this coming fall. Johnson has been quite loquacious in respect to the things he intends to do apart from fighting. He has informed his Parisian friends that he is about to put a brand-new patent medicine on the market and that he purposes stocking a library with ”aP the books written about Napoleon.” He is also going to visit the field of Waterloo, build a sanitarium and become a patron of grand opera. Probably Jack hopes that a diversity of pursuits will help him forget his troubles. • • • T HAT a “fight” with Jack Johnson as one of the principals will be announced very soon is quite on the cards. It is practically a certainty that his first opponent abroad will be a man of his own color, and it will be interesting to see on whom the preference falls. Reports from Russia sav that John son will box either Sam Langford or Sam McVey. Well, McVey Is still In Australia, where he has gone on the vaudeville stage and is being billed as "the black Caruso.” Langford Is wondering what the fu ture holds in the way of matches. He is ready enough to box Joe Jean nette, who. by the way. has been the most persistent ©ballenger Jack John son ever had. As everything is fair in love and pugilism, it may be that Jeannette will execute a flank movement on friend Langford. He may manage to detain Sam at this end by promising to come out here and box him and then depart surreptitiously for Paris, where, in the present condition of Jack Johnson’s finances, it will prob ably be a case of first come, first served It behooves Langford to watch out. CAPITAL CIU CLUB COURSE IN FINE SHAPE S COTTY McKENZIE, profession al for the Capital City Club, has been working with Gaelic fervor for three weeks, getting the greens and turf of the Brookhaven course in fine condition for the first tournament, which is to be for the president’s cup. Play will begin with a qualifying round from scratch, after which han dicaps will be applied for the follow ing match play.

The first and second rounds must be completed by August 5, the semi finals by August 7, and the finals will be played August 9. THIEF GETS 55 CENTS.
